It will also give you peace of mind that your house will be intact when you return. Dogs usually learn to love their crates as their safe den, and the crate will keep the dog safe when you are not around. Rescues will exhibit anxiety when left alone so begin crate training immediately. No matter the age of the Poodle that you adopt, you must begin its routine and schedule as if you had just brought home a young puppy. One of our members will foster the Poodle until the proper placement can be made, and we will follow that foster’s observations and advice in finding the rescue a home. We make sure the Poodle is spayed or neutered before it goes into a new home. This will help the dog bond more quickly to you and helps you to become a confident owner. We recommend that the new owner enroll in an obedience class with their rescue Poodle. Sometimes our rescues have never been leash trained, and we will work on that as well. Sometimes that is the first introduction to the grooming tools, so training starts at that time. When we take in a rescue Poodle, we will groom it. We will only place a rescue in a home where we believe it will have a good chance of successfully integrating with its new people. All rescues have baggage, and we will do our best to be up front about what we know about our dogs. Most of the dogs that arrive in our rescue have been neglected, though, and haven’t been given the love or the training that they desperately need.
